- Cut octopus pouches (heads) from tentacles, leaving sufficient pouch to keep tentacles attached in 1 piece (for small octopuses throw away pouches.) In a 8 qt kettle combine octopus pouches and tentacles, lemon, salt, peppercorns, and water to cover by 1 inch and simmer gently, covered, till octopus is knife-tender, 20 to 30 min. In a colander drain octopus and cold till it can be handled. With hands rub off purplish skin from pouches and tentacles (skin around suction c. may not come off completely). In a large bowl whisk together remaining ingredients and salt and pepper to taste and add in octopus, turning to coat. Marinate octopus, covered and chilled, 1 day.
- Prepare grill.
- Transfer octopus to paper towels to drain and reserve marinade. Grill octopus on an oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals, turning occasionally, till browned, about 6 min. Cut octopus into bite-size pcs (leave small octopus whole) and toss with reserved marinade.
- Octopus may be made 1 day ahead and chilled, covered. Serve octopus at room temperature.
